Source abstract

ABSTRACT We propose the invariant subspace physics‐informed neural network (IS‐PINN), a novel approach that combines the invariant subspace method (ISM) with deep learning to solve nonlinear diffusion equations. By restricting the solution to a prescribed invariant subspace spanned by exact basis functions, IS‐PINN eliminates spatial dependencies and transforms the nonlinear diffusion equation into a dynamical system. The temporal coefficients are learned by a neural network with hard‐constrained initial conditions via least‐squares projection. We validate IS‐PINN on five problems: the semilinear heat equation, the Riabouchinsky–Proudman–Johnson equation (RPJE), the porous medium equation, the quasilinear parabolic equation, and the (1+2)D reaction–diffusion equation. Numerical results demonstrate that IS‐PINN outperforms standard PINNs, achieving mean relative errors of – over five random seeds, with mean training time reduced by approximately 74%–98%.
